Mrs. Hattie Clifford is an elderly widow
who occupies an un%pretentious cottage on
a bank of Crow creek in South Chey-
enn Mrs. Clifford received a letter from
England the other day, and since that
time has been in most excellent spirits. a
To a select circle of friends she diyulRed
the import of its contents and received
hearty congratulations in consequence.
Jim KID Uames Willoughby)
formerly of this city had penned the pleas
ing message. 1t was to the effect that a
pair OF London attorneys had visited his
camp at the Wild West show and in
quired ifhe knew a Mrs. Hattie Clifford
of Cheyenne. Wyo. As the lady had
lived here when Jim called this city his
headquarters be knew her and answered
the query of the legal gentlemen in the
affirmative and furnished them with her
proper address. The firm took occasion
to inform the lady by the first mail that
if she was the Hattie Clifford for whom
they were seeking a legacy of 5 $1,000 was
awaiting her. The lady has forwarded
papers establishing her identity and title
to the money and will probably receive it
in due time. 1t is supposed that jim
will now forsake his beloved bronohos and
blossom out as an attorney.

Death Of Ex.Secretary Manning.

Hon. Daniel Manning, Ex-Secretary OF
the Treasury, died at Albany on the Gath,
Soon after o'clock his son, James 8. Man
ming, saw that the end was close at hand.
Members OF the family in other parts OF
the house were quickly summoned. At
1:2O Mr.. Manning's eyes were turned on
those about him. Then they closed and
life ebbed away. The news OF the death OF
Mr.. Manning spread throughout the city
and everywhere sincere sorrow WAS ex-
pressed. Flags on all the principal state
state and municipal buildings were at
once placed at half-mast.
After the partial paralysis which
occurred in March. 1886, q thorough
medical examination resulted in the dis
covery that he WAS suffering from
chronic Bright's disease. compile ated with
hypertrophy aud degeneration of the heart
and that the paralysis was probably due
to a hemorrhage into the brain. There
was no recurrence OF the paralysis, and his
mind remained perfectly clear to the last.
The usual official notice OF his death was
taken at Albany and Washington, and
in addition thereto. the Presi.
dent sent the following telegram to Mrs.
Manning:
Though in this hour OF unutterable grief
your sorrow is too sacred to be shared,
and too deep to DO reached by earthly
comfort, may express to you my sincere
and tender sympathy, saddened by MY
own affection at the loss OF a true and
trusted friend and associate who, but
lately, stood at my side in the discharge
with patriotic zeal of solemn public duty.

. Cholera has heretofore been intro
daced into this country by way Of
New Orleans. anu the epidemic Of
1854, which created such -ravages
in Pittsburgh. found its highway OF
death up the Mississippi and Ohio val
leys. Recently 600 immigrants from
the cholera-infected sections OF Italy
were landed at New Orleans from the
Italian steamer Alesia. The claim is
made that they are all in good health,
and that their clothing and baggage
have been thoroughly disinfectel.
This may be true. but there is some.
thing very suspicious in the fact that
those immigrants were taken to New
Orleans instead of New York. It is q
very unusual thing for SO large mum.
Der of immigrants to be lsnded al
New Orleans at one time, and in view
of the recent, severe quarantine impos.
ed at New York on an immigrant ship

sion is justified that the Alesia landed

It would seem that many members
of congress feel that their whole duty
consists in the introduction of bills
without the slightest idea OF their
passage. Five hundred bills and more
have been already introduced in the
senate. It is not extravagant to es-
innate that the number of
bills likely to be introduced in the
house at the first time set apart for
the reception of bills will be 5000.
There were more than 1000 bills in
PRODUCED in the last congress OF which
more than $4,000 failed. A very large
proportion of these $4,000 bills are
to be reintroduced in the Fiftieth con-
CreSS.

FASHIONS In Dancing.

"There has been great improvement
in the style of dancing in England dur.
ing the last three or four years." say,
the London Graphic. "The fashion Of
mad gallops and waltzing which resem.
bles the charges of foot ball players, has
temporarily gone out, and the valse
trols temps has come back into favor.
Shall we ever see Q resurrection of the
old minuet, which so perfectly conveyed
the poetry of motion? It is rather Ger.
monious dance for these times, but
little cultivation of that courtliness oil
demeanor which first gave rise to the
term ball room manners" would per.
haps do some of our English youth No
harm. Beau Nash would have been
scandalized at the style in which many
OF our young gentlemen bob their head.
instead of bowling, and We doubt wheth-
er the curtesys of our best-trained
young ladies would muster before his
critical eye. There is cubbishness in
some youngsters which make,
them ashamed to be graceful in deport-
ment before ladies. They are graceful
enough in their athletic sports, thei.
riding, rowing and cricket, for in these
pursuits grace is called "form ;" but no
form has yet been set up as standard
to be attained in ball rooms. So We
see young fellows who are very Apollos
with their zephyrs, on shrink up into
s!ouching figures when they put on
their dress-coats and shamble forward
with awkward .gaits to ask a girl 70
dance just as if they were afraid Of be-
ing laughed at. Yet we have neve,
heard of o really well-mannered and
graceful dancer being laughed at even
by the most gawkish coatemner of So
clety pastimes. Perhaps if the fashion
OF slow dancing is kept up for a few
years longer it will lead naturally to
revival of the et:ace which comes from
carefully executed movements, and the
result will be seen in a greater polish Of
manners outside the bathrooms as we'll
as in them"

The United States tho Greatest
Mineral Producer In tho World.

The United States geological survey,
Maj. J. w. Powell. director, has issued the
statistics OF the production OF minerals
during 1886. The report gives primarily
tho production and value OF every
proma9ent mineral substance mined
in the.lMt6 States: and in addition
a compctsSt4 tement OF prices, sources of
supply and She technical matters which
proved important during the year. 1t ap.
pears that the total value OF tho mineral
products. taken az nearly a. possible at
the points OF production, was more than
$465, 600, 600 the largest mineral produc-
ton yet recorded in any country. In
1885 tho value was about $429, OOO, 900.
Many substances shared in this in.
crease, but particularly iron and
steel which alone showed an
increase OF $50, 900, 900. In 1855 bitumi-
nous coal was the most valuable mineral
product, hut in 1886 it was passed by pig
iron, which had a higher total value than
silver and gold combined. Wonderful
progress 10 shown in the use OF natural
gas, the consumption being moro than
double that OF 1885 and twenty times
that of 1883. It IL estimated that the
value OF tho coal displaced by natural gas
in 1886 was moro than 80. 500, 900. This
is slightly less than halt tho valuo OF the
petroleum.
